Winter...

If you could have one or two different kinds of superhots all through the bleak gray winter and then well into spring what would they be?

Doing hydro in the winter?
Well, I do "hydro" in the winter, but mostly the pots just come in from outside.
 
 
 
 
Edit: See my post in ghetto grow systems for what hydro means here.  Or I could explain it, in which case it's basically a bowl of water with a rockwool cube in the middle.
 
I will be doing 8 plants this winter in my same hydro NFT system that I used last year, except no tomatoes.
 
I have only decided on 3 of the 8 so far. 7 Pot Jonah, Yellow Fatalii, and Peach Wasp. Cant make up my mind on the others yet.

Kinda like this answer.
 
 
I''m just slowly trending that way. It is a reliable well producing pepper that is plenty hot and doesn't have any negative aromas or tastes like quite a few of the supers do.
 
FYI, you may need to grow an annuum as well. When I was growing a ghost under lights a couple of yeas ago, I would get tons of flowers but no pollen. I had to pollinate with a jalapeno that were also blooming. I think my basement was either too cool or too dry for the ghost to make it's own pollen.
